Description
Alexandria, Egypt. 1941-05. Elevated view of troops crowding the decks of MV Lossie Bank during the evacuation of Crete. The vessel was bombed and sustained rudder damage as it left Suda Bay and was still circling in sight of the Bay the next morning before it finally limped into Alexandria. Amongst the soldiers are members of the 2/106 General Transport Company. (Donor J. MacDonald)
